In addition, use/impairment of alcohol or controlled substances by drivers, crew, or others associated with the competitor is prohibited at any time while on BeaveRun property. Failure to comply with this requirement may result in suspension of competition privileges for ten events for the first offense, and suspension of competition privileges for life for subsequent offenses. Presence of an open container will be considered as usage and will be treated as such.
  2. No tire warm-ups of any kind are allowed. Violators will be disqualified.
  3. Speed limit in the pit/paddock is 5 mph. Speed limits in non pit/paddock areas will follow posted limits.
  4. Drivers are responsible for the actions of their children, pets, crew, and guests.
  5. Passengers are allowed at any time within the limits set in the SCCA National Solo Rules Section 1.4 without penalty.
Entrants
  1. Each event entrant must present their valid driver’s license at Registration.
  2. In compliance with SCCA Solo Section 6.1, all competitors are required to work the event.
  3. Qualified replacements may be used as substitutes in worker assignments. However, substitute workers must notify the Chief of Workers of the substitution and sign the waiver form if they have not already done so.

  3. All vehicles must be adequately muffled to conform to Solo Section 3.5 and noise levels are not allowed to exceed 100 db.
  4. Classes offered will be those provided as national or supplemental Open classes per the SCCA Solo rules. In addition, two "PAXed" classes will be offered which will be scored using the PAX/RTP index. See "Supplemental Classes" below.
Supplemental Classes

Both supplemental classes are scored using the current year PAX/RTP index to equalize cars/classes. The index will be available upon request.

Ladies

  1. Open to any female entrant running in a vehicle prepared to any Open class rules.
  2. Women are not required to run this class to be eligible for the Lady Driver of the Year award.
  3. Ladies class entrants will be designated with an "L", optionally followed by their base class. For instance "L" or "L-CP".

Street Tire Shootout

  1. Open to any entrant running in a vehicle prepared to any Open class other than ST* classes, regardless of experience.
  2. The vehicle must use tires meeting SCCA Solo Section 14.3.B - 14.3.D (i.e. ST* tires with no width restrictions).
  3. All other Open class rules apply, specifically including wheel restrictions.
  4. Street Tire Shootout participants will be designated with an "S", optionally followed by their base class. For instance "S" or "S-DM".
  5. Street Tire Shootout participants are eligible for Driver of the Year awards, but there will be no adjustment to account for tire restrictions. I.e. someone running S-AS will use the same index factor as someone running AS.
Class Championship Series

Class championships will be awarded at the end of the year, determined as follows:

  1. The best six of ten events will be counted. Competitors must have competed in at least six events and be SCCA members to be eligible for awards.
  2. Individual event class points are based on both your time and your class winner's time. Divide your class winner's best time by your best time, multiply the result by 1000, and round to the nearest whole point.
  3. Awards will be distributed as follows: One award for one to three eligible competitors in a class; two awards for four to six eligible competitors in a class; three awards for seven to nine eligible competitors in a class; one additional award for every four additional eligible competitors or fraction thereof (e.g., six awards for 18 eligible competitors).
  4. Ties will be broken by comparing the following in descending order, until the tie is broken. (For the purpose of tie breaking, all events attended will be used):
    1. Number of event wins.
    2. Number of 1000 point events.
